The Ambassador

A Monégasque who was educated in London at the French Lycée, H.E. Mrs. Evelyne Genta has lived in the UK for the past 15 years.

In 2011, she became Ambassador of the Principality of Monaco to the Court of St. James’s to the United Kingdom which promotes all facets of the Principality: economy and finance, culture, humanitarian and environmental projects. Central to her core ambitions is to change any misconceptions people may have about the Principality:
‘Many think Monaco is a place where rich old people go to hide their money’, says H.E. Mrs. Evelyne Genta. ‘That's not true, but that old image has stuck like glue and we have to change it . Monaco is a wonderful place to live but is also a transparent regulated country.'

The Embassy

As a continuously innovative, culturally rich and developing country, Monaco wishes to engage with international community more freely and showcase its great heritage, diversity and wide-ranging expertise to the world.

Through communicating and acting abroad, Monaco can present all its facets, expanding relationships and quantifying its future in the process.

The United Kingdom and Monaco

The Principality has long held a unique bond with the UK. We are very close geographically and almost 15% of those living and working in Monaco are British. It is important to allow that special relationship to thrive by building bridges between the London and Monegasque communities. In return we have seen record numbers of new people, including young families, registering an interest in moving to the Principality and bringing their business with them.

In 2008, our Chamber for Economic Development signed a co-operation agreement with the London Chamber of Commerce.
